Tim is now earning $500 per week after receiving an increase of $45 per week. What was Tim's previous weekly salary

1 answer:

8 0

Now Tim gets $500 after it $45 was added to what he had last week

That means that
"What Tim earned last week" + $45 = $500

Subtract $45 from $500
$500-$45= $455

If you're not sure check your work
If I make $455 now and next week I get $45 more next week
$455+$45=$500
Next week I make $500

Does the quadratic have a maximum or minimum

Answer:

B)max/ opens down

Step-by-step explanation:

Parabola equation:

The equation of a parabola has the following format:

$y = ax^2 + bx + c$

If $a > 0$ , that is, x² is multiplied by a positive number, the function has a minimum value and the parabola opens up.

If $a < 0$ , that is, x² is multiplied by a negative number, the function has a maximum value and the parabola opens down.

In this question:

$y = -x^2 - 2x + 3$

From the graph, we already see that it opens down and has a max, and analitically, since $a = -1 < 0$ , this is confirmed. The correct answer is given by option b.
